This important and needs are action, Paul is agreat guy and master at his work I have made money from his teaching and others have I now as well, if we do not act his work will die and so will are's it will all die. These are hard times and in these times we must act and act now I have little money but I am willing to part with it for a good cause, he needs help these free lessons should not be free they are a lot of money for him and that's not right it's wrong died wrong, I say we pick someone from this site that he has a relationship with and get a donation fund going. If we let this die one by one all the good people in are work will fall by the way side.

Please think about it we must do something.

Hi Josh,

I dont think what Paul is looking for is donations (but who'd turn down free money?). I think the best way to make sure Paul can continue to offer these free lessons is to purchase some of his really in depth lessons OR send in something to have him critique it. I have all the lessons he has offered so far, and I know that if you study them, you are going to learn something from each of them, probably a whole lot. Take a look at the critique he did in this latest newsletter. Can you imagine if you could improve your work from the level that Paul Krause is at, to the level that Paul Burnett shows in his work? Having someone like Paul Burnett take a close, objective look at a piece of your work, and point out your strengths and weaknesses and tell you how to fix them has got to be worth way more than the $20 he is charging for that service.

The first home study course I bought from Paul Burnett was way back in the early 80's I think. He had trouble back then getting enough people to sign up to make it profitable for him. He keeps plugging away at it, and keeps trying new ways to get his information out there. I hope that enough people find what he's trying to do of enough value that they will support his efforts, and give him the encouragement he needs to continue.

And for those of you who haven't heard of Paul Krause before, check out his website

ALl I can say is ditto to what Clay has said. I have all of Paul's lessons, books, etc. Like Clay said he gives you a lot of the "Whys". He has a lot of lessons, books and even some projects that you can purchase directly from his site. The first thing that I received from him was the Foundaiton course over 20 years ago. I anxiously awaited the lessons that were supposed to follow but those never surfaced. We discussed it and yes he unfortunately didn't have enough interest generated from the course to continue that particular set. However he has made other lessons available.

Regards,

Ben
